" The Window"

                                 Works in progress

I will be posting works that are underway and try and give you a visual feel for the often frustrating progress of a work. The failures and the small triumphs of the Artist..

This piece that I am calling " The Window" is a work in Graphite using a pastel sparingly to add color  as depth of texture.Having only been creating in pencil for two weeks it is a tad crude at this stage and may end up that way.I try not limit myself and I tend to travel places at times before I am ready.

 I had no plan other than the window frame,the rest develops as I lay pencil to paper.On a good day,a piece comes via a Channel.I am just a vehicle of delivery.

 Francis Bacon seemed to be near when the lower right pane came into play.. sorry Francis..eek
As usual I had a few dry spell days,then once again became open and was able to hear the piece speak.It leads I follow.Not a Rembrandt,or a Dali,but I made many small personal triumphs in the creation of this work.  Hope to have more to come..Peace  ..fk

The first leg to camp Salerno Afghanistan.

Mid flight stopover in Shannon Ireland to take on fuel and fresh Guinness Ale for those so inclined.
For me, a chance to stretch my legs, hit a cigar, and enjoy Bailey' coffee
